Engineering Manager

Company: Divisions Maintenance Group
Apply for the Engineering Manager
Location: Newport
Job Description:

Responsibilities

  • Delivery and execution. Sprint health, scope discipline, and predictable delivery. You read a sprint like an operator and intervene early and specifically.
  • Engineering excellence. The quality bar – code review, test coverage, observability, on‑call health, and incident response. You review your team’s PRs yourself.
  • Technical leadership. You drive design and review it on the merits – database choices, idempotency, rate limits – across a Java and Python‑based stack with Kafka, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Temporal, and Snowflake.
  • AI leverage. You use AI as a core operating practice to multiply your team’s output, and you raise the team’s AI bar in development, review, and instrumentation.
  • Product partnership. You partner with Product as a peer – cross‑questioning a brief, asking what’s driving a metric and what to instrument before building.
  • People leadership. 1:1s, growth, performance, and hiring. You read between the lines, name root causes, and treat engineers with dignity.

Requirements

  • 8-10 years of engineering experience, with 2+ years managing engineers as an EM / Sr. EM or equivalent.
  • Hands‑on depth in Java (primary) and/or Python, with distributed systems (Kafka, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Redis, Temporal) and cloud (AWS, Kubernetes).
  • A current, demonstrable AI‑assisted development practice.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication.
  • A track record of hiring and growing engineers.
